I may as well cut to the chase here, and say, proudly, that what we have here is a no excuses Chevy. That’s right-put the Equinox against the best in its class, and the Chevy has no excuses, no stories-it simply does its job, and does it well. GM has also wised up on product introductions. No new wrapper, with promises of better drivetrains to come-it’s all here, right now. Chevy entered the hotly contested crossover market with the 2005 Equinox-not a bad car, but the styling was forgettable.
